You probably know by now that I'm a collector of these Tsum Tsum Mystery Packs by Jakks Pacific (specifically just the Pixar characters). They're so cute and so fun to display! Well, at long last, here's my review of SERIES 10—which started hitting stores back in early March. They took a while to reach my area here on the east coast (just found them at Target a couple weeks ago), but I was lucky enough to find a full case to pick through regardless.

In Series 9, Jakks Pacific introduced accessories with rolling wheels to this line (which hadn't been done before). That continues here with three of the characters. Take a look at all of them on the back of the package below! You know the display pieces/accessories are mainly why I collect these, so I was so happy to see that these ones were just as fun and creative as ever. They never really disappoint!

Alrighty, that's plenty of introduction. Let's take a closer look at all these amazing characters unbagged and set up!

CARL

I'll admit right off the bat that this one might have to be my favorite. First of all, any merch from Up is not common these days—so it's refreshing to have something new! Secondly, I love anything having to do with Carl and those iconic balloons. The classic balloon cart accessory and the way the balloons clip onto Carl's back while he sits atop of it are just too cute. I also appreciate that the helium tanks were included on the back of the cart (nice detail) and Carl's tennis ball cane on his underside. This makes for the perfect display piece and will look great on my Up themed shelf.

MATER

Mater's display is fantastic as well! So many nice little movie accurate touches (I'm talking the hanging tires, the swinging hook, the license plates...). His "Tow Mater Towing & Salvage" sign was such a clever choice for his display piece. Mater can sit under it (like I have in my photo below) or on top of it.

DORY

Dory and her colorful brain coral home display stand are cute as well, despite being the most simple of the bunch.No assembly is required for this one—it's literally all just one piece. And check it out, Dory even has her orange transfer tag attached to her fin (which is another nice, subtle detail).

Note- If you missed my posts on any of the previous nine series, I'd recommend checking those out as well: Series 2 HERE, Series 3 HERE, Series 4 HERE, Series 5 HERE, Series 6 HERE, Series 7 HERE, Series 8 HERE and Series 9 HERE.

By the way, if this is your first experience with this collection,
Mystery Stack Pack Tsums Tsums are always about 1.5" in size and
are made of a soft vinyl/plastic
material. Each pack in this series retails for $1.99. Best of luck as you try to track
down your favorites! Again, Target and Walmart
stores are your best bets right now to find them—so head to yours ASAP
to check for availability.

Let me know what your thoughts are in the comments below. Who's your
favorite character from this series? Who do you hope to see in a future
series down the road? I love to hear from you guys.
